Quote Jens Lehmann has filed a lawsuit demanding compensation from fellow goalkeeper Tim Wiese of Werder Bremen for telling a television audience Lehmann belonged in the "Muppet Show" and suggesting he had mental problems. Jens Lehmann - Arsenal goalkeeper Jens Lehmann sues Werder Bremen goalkeeper Tim Wiese over 'muppet' slur Lehmann recently came out of retirement to return to Arsenal but it was while he was working as a television commentator in September that the German criticised Wiese's performance in a Champions League match against Tottenham Hotspur. Wiese responded a day later in a newspaper by saying Lehmann should "go on the Muppet Show." He continued: "The man belongs on the couch. Perhaps that would help him. He should be committed - preferably locked up." Lehmann is demanding €20,000 for having his "personal rights violated." A Munich court will hear the case this week but Lehmann will not appear in person. Last month Arsène Wenger took a gamble with the harmony of his Arsenal dressing room by offering Lehmann a chance to return to the club.
